Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Treadmill Trails at 4.7 against Treadmill's 3.4. Treadmill Trails also leads on review sentiment (84% vs 45%) and ratings volume (1K vs 18). Treadmill's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 10) and update cadence (every 10 days vs every 2 months). On price, ads, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
